From Moscow to Maui - S2-E4

Factual error: During the aerial maneuvers, the so called Mig-30 (no such plane exists) is easily recognizable even from those who aren't aviation buffs as just the same plane as the two US ones intercepting it, but with an opportune paintjob. Especially obvious during the credit roll for Jeff Pomerantz, when the three of them fly slowing down for the landing, and in formation. (00:04:00)

The Woman on the Beach - S2-E3

Factual error: The opening sequence is set in "Summer 1945", and the librarian mentions as well the season; summer. The prop that Magnum is checking out though, has a headline identifying it as April 17, not quite summer. (00:17:55)

Factual error: In Chapter 11-2 a vulture is assigned as noise a howling (its speech balloon says " ^Howls^ ").

Beauty Knows No Pain - S1-E18

Factual error: Magnum takes part to an Ironman triathlon contest, but the writers did not bother to follow the correct order of the parts of the race, which would be swim, bike, and then run. Here he cycles last.

Sammo ★

J.'Digger' Doyle - S1-E17

Factual error: Magnum is scouting the prison facility with his binoculars. During the scene, the audio track to give the impression of the jungle surround has the trademark kookaburra laughter, which is not a Hawaiian bird. (00:33:55)

J.'Digger' Doyle - S1-E17

Factual error: Just before the fade-out of the first shot of Robin's limo in France, there are 3 street signs saying "Meyrargues 5 kms", "Marseilles 22 kms", "Aix-en-Provence 6 kms." It's an impossible triangulation; they are almost on a line, Marseilles is about 40 kms south of Aix, which is about 18 kms south of Meyrargues. (00:01:40)

Kyoteki! Ankoku shiten oh arawaru - S1-E9

Factual error: Unless the police dog is also a Saint with extraordinary powers, it's kinda impossible that he'd have followed a scent over 6 years old, through a public park even. (00:13:40)

Sammo ★

Cygnus! Hyogen no senshi - S1-E3

Factual error: When the camera pans across the boxes from networks all over the world broadcasting the Galaxian wars, clocks have nonsensical hours; it's 10:20 wherever "ACO" is from, but 5:05 in "MHK" land. Timezones don't work that way. (00:10:45)

Sammo ★

Factual error: For the third movie in a row -at least they are consistent - Maggie introduces herself as Detective of the SFPD, but detectives are not referred as such, but as Inspectors.

Sammo ★

Yomigaere! Eiyuu Densetsu - S1-E1

Factual error: When Seiya cuts off Cassios' ear, it pulses on the floor like it's a beating heart. There can hardly be a muscle twitch in a severed ear. (00:05:30)

Sammo ★

Factual error: A mandrill (African monkey) roams the stage of the Ikari team, in the Brazilian Amazon Jungle.

Sammo ★

Factual error: The original theme for the Hungry Wolves theme of this edition is called "Napolitan Blues." They either fight in Venice, or someone at SNK had the wrong idea about Naples' looks, gondolas and all.

Sammo ★

Factual error: Like in the previous movie, the female lead introduces herself formally as Detective Maggie Price, from San Francisco Police Department. Where the correct rank is "Inspector."

Sammo ★

Factual error: The search that cracks the case is nonsense from a simple logical standpoint. There are three people, whose deaths have never been related together, but that all died because of tetryzoline poisoning. Entering all three of those names in google would not produce relevant results or even narrow the spectrum, because it's three unrelated deaths. (01:08:40)

Sammo ★

All Roads Lead to Floyd - S1-E13

Factual error: When Floyd is standing by the Cadillac with the vanity FLOWER license plate, on the same plate you can see in the upper right corner that its registration sticker on the license plate is a 76 one. For being a fancy car by a posh golf course, it's quite odd to be 5 years in arrears of the tax - it is, viceversa, a mistake that happens in other car props during the season. (00:04:15)

Sammo ★

Thicker Than Blood - S1-E12

Factual error: Justice in Hawaii works at a breakneck pace; TC is jailed and goes on trial instantly, which is fine, but also his impounded chopper goes for auction within a couple hours as well.

Sammo ★

Factual error: For being set in the spring in San Francisco, the trees (look at Maggie coming back home in the intro) are rather barren and there are dead leaves in the grass.

Sammo ★

Factual error: When Henry looks at the boat photo at Layton's, the ZIP code of the paper above is the proper one for San Francisco, but the calling card nearby has a nonexistent one, 90344 (together with the usual bogus 555 phone numbers). (01:04:20)

Sammo ★

Factual error: Ian and Sally's photo at the fundraiser is supposed to be from one week "earlier", so before the murder; the date on the cheque is 06-05-11, though, which would be 4 years prior the year the movie is set in. Further confirming the mistake, the murder happened "on the 12th" (no month specified, but then has to be either May or June) and the day after is a Saturday (the book presentation), both not compatible with this timeline. (00:51:40)

Sammo ★

Factual error: The food expert protagonist says, and it's the key plot point, that lamprey is deadly if not prepared properly, due to the natural toxins it contains. Simply put, it's not the case.
